Obama, Lurie discussed Vick, green energy

Lurie told Peter King of NBC and Sports Illustrated the president praised the decision to hire Vick after the former Atlanta Falcon served 21 months in the Leavenworth, Kan., federal prison and was under home confinement for his involvement in an illegal interstate dogfighting ring, The Washington Post reported.

“The president wanted to talk about two things, but the first was Michael,” Lurie said. “He said, ‘So many people who serve time never get a fair second chance.’He was … passionate about it. He said it’s never a level playing field for prisoners when they get out of jail. And he was happy that we did something on such a national stage that showed our faith in giving someone a second chance after such a major downfall.”

*Ahem*

Obama Scolds Vick:Â Don't play with your food.

So the guy who eats dogs (because eating a particular animal transfers their characteristics to you as he said) “passionately” calls the top 1% owner of a football team to ask about his top 1% player to make sure his career is recoveringÂ after going to jail for running a dogfighting ring.Â Sort of puts it in perspective, doesn’t it?

Commies, please keep telling yourselves that this is not a big deal.Â Americans spend approximately $45 billion dollars a year on their pets.Â They get upset watching Sarah McLachlan showing injured ones to raise money for charity.

Your president ate (at the very least) one because he thought it would give him special powers. And it did.Â It made him your pack leader.

A guy twittered a comment last night that he thought that Mr. Romney should answer every question asked him by the press with “Obama ATE a dog!”

Seriously, though, it was pointed out by someone else that this shows definitively that Obummer does not THINK like an American. The fact that he would write about it so cavalierly….(tough)….means that he apparently didn’t see a problem.

The fact he was 6 or 7 years old at the time, and step daddy made him eat it does not excuse him writing about eating Fido in such a cold manner. And hey, who knows if he has eaten dog lately? Will the stupid media ask him that? (no!) But they would have it on the idiot box 24/7 every day if it was Romney.

Hasn’t every other red-blooded American boy raised on a farm in Kansas eaten dog prepared by his devoted mother dropped by her insurance company for a pre-existing condition?

Just like everybody else. More American than you or me. Not some “Other” that’s for sure.

I spent many nights as a kid at the end of a dinner table well into the night because I wouldn’t eat peas. The idea of eating a dog would have been out of the question. What kind of inhuman monster would do such a thing unless they were starving to death.
